House Cannith bears the Mark of Making, and its two guilds have built a financial empire across Khorvaire, based on the magical manufacturing of all things, both great and small, fantastic and mundane. It was House Cannith, after all, that has for over a century been building intelligent constructs and, just over three decades ago, gave the world its first sentient and living one in the form of the warforged. House Cannith is also a house divided: The heart of the house was in Cyre, and that nation’s destruction on the Day of Mourning took most of the house’s leadership with it. Today three separate heirs to the position of house patriarch vie for the leadership from the geographical location on which they have rebuilt their respective branches of the family.

The party has been engaged by House Cannith, at the behest of Lady Elaydren d’Vown, to undertook an adventure into the bowels of the Dorasharn Tower well below the sewer system of modern Sharn.
